This account will be the voice of DataDelve owner, J.D. Landgrebe (just so no question about identity). The struggle between using "I" and "We" is real, but we are a small, focused shop!

"Claude, you've been a bad AI Agent. Mend your ways!" (and thankful for Skill files like vba-function-architecture referenced here. Often using @mattpocockuk write-a-skill skill (Thanks Matt!) to write a new one to gradually tame bad, AI Agent habits.

[DataDelveEngineer @data_delve]

Intrigued by this and moving down this path and having success with Obsidian to augment GitHub copilot-instructions.md and skills md to cover generic housekeeping expectations. Giving agent context is everything.

@gothburz Hopeless post. don’t want to work with you with/without AI. Write Instructions.md doc telling AI how to do life. Include forbidden words/phrases list. Iterate prompting to write same report until flawless+ faster than you could do. Share Instructions.md with team.

Our generic code toolbox is now AI-driven to develop solutions for clients. Ping if you need "data straightening" help. We offer a fixed cost "data tuneup" to help potential clients assess opportunities. Read more here. https://t.co/TjhRicDRVZ

@kepano Select all shortcut in iOS versions

[DataDelveEngineer @data_delve]

@simonw Yes. And simply use the phone to write extended prompts and code plans that get dumped into the coding agent when returning from coffee shop

[DataDelveEngineer @data_delve]

@__mharrison__ Adding that https://t.co/SVsHHh82VA is a magic key for this by storing transferable templates for functions and test code. It’s an easy way to give novice coders a jump start on using great practices

[DataDelveEngineer @data_delve]

@__mharrison__ Modularizing into single action functions. Amateur coders (engineers and scientists like me) start with long, rambling spaghetti code. Getting modular is a gateway to testing and LLM driven coding

@GergelyOrosz @alexandr_wang Interestingly, Alexander’s reco has been approach for 185 years at P&G where I worked for 30+. It has gotten harder for a big company to do this as the culture gets more short term focused, but it remains a strength there (and made for a great lifelong workplace for many of us)

@gjmount After good aux mic, the portable monitor I just bought has been great new gear for me. About $100, USBC powered. I have always prided self in ability to live on just laptop screen but nice to have a second screen to park things not shown to audience

[DataDelveEngineer @data_delve]

@JonAcuff Longtime P&G R&D guy here. This panic is ignorant of fact that these products are made of US grown renewable forest paper manufactured in plants in Mehoopany PA, Cape Girardeau MO and Green Bay. Ships = irrelevant

[DataDelveEngineer @data_delve]

@dhh @yacineMTB For many, insight is that relevant“operating system” encompasses all devices, so OSX makes is optimal due to synergy with iOS and even TVOS. Different than suggestion that Linux is simply an undiscovered jewel. Python in OSX would need to truly suck (it doesn’t) to leave that.

@BatsouElef I blog (less often than I would wish) about my 40 years as an R&D technologist and my ongoing consulting work helping people with data and modeling https://t.co/O2Rr1eVdtR

[DataDelveEngineer @data_delve]

@gjmount Yes. Also still quite rare in my corporate consulting practice too. Just trained R&D peep yesterday to use bing as way of at least accessing GPT4 responses to prompts

[DataDelveEngineer @data_delve]

@JonAcuff “Help me understand…”

[DataDelveEngineer @data_delve]

@Austen 100% agree. I am Chemical Engineer/modeler not software pro, but made huge strides setting context for Github Copilot by learning how much needed re "helper classes" it doesn't have full access to in project. Saving grace is iterating on prompt to get to productiveness!!

[DataDelveEngineer @data_delve]

@MKBHD Haha but Marques, Excel is already the best calculator on the iPad?!?🤪

[DataDelveEngineer @data_delve]

TechNotes post: Color Science enables QC on colored products or assessing cleaning product performance. Mastering calculation details is critical even when the topic is junior high math --here converting rectangular to polar coordinates to get color hue https://t.co/Uanphm2LVn

[DataDelveEngineer @data_delve]

@JonAcuff @Clear @TSA Now with TSA automatic ID readers I see Clear as extra unnecessary step compared to Pre

[DataDelveEngineer @data_delve]

@chrisalbon Yes! AI tools encourage modular, single action functions and corresponding unit tests. They severely punish anything more complex!
